    • Trivia

    • Goofs
      In the beginning, Barbarella is in zero gravity, yet her hair falls down toward the ground.
    • Quotes

      Barbarella: What's that screaming? A good many dramatic situations begin with screaming...

    • Crazy credits
      In the opening credits, the letters in the words move around in an attempt to obscure Barbarella's nudity.
    • Alternate versions
      Barbarella was released in the USA before the MPAA introduced the motion picture rating system on November 1, 1968. It was consequently released with a tag "Suggested For Mature Audiences". A re-release in 1977 (to cash in on the success of Tähtien sota (1977)) was edited to obtain a "PG" rating and was called "Barbarella: Queen Of The Galaxy". The video version is of the original uncut version and not the "PG" version (despite the subtitle "Queen of the Galaxy" and the "PG" rating on the cover).

    All the plot of a high-budget porn...
    Really and truly, this could be the plot of one of the more "high-brow" types of porn. I watched this with a bunch of other girls for a class, and we could not stop laughing the entire time.

    See Jane Fonda meet men from around the galaxy, and have sex with them! Dare your friends to count how many times she changes her costume!! Sparks deep philosophical discussion, like what exactly the writers were on when they wrote this. Great fun, not to be missed!
